I am a dumb guy, but his latest explanation of what there was before the big bang was dumb. So, rip. I guess.

 

[sho nuff]

Brilliant man...RIP

 

[Keith R]

RIP

A Brief History of Time one of the best science books ever written.

 

[PIK95]

Bazinga?

 

[The General]

He was pretty smart. RIP

 

[Galileo]

:(

 

[Frostillicus]

Bummer.

The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

 

[Sheriff Bart]

He made it to 76.

Still a loss for humanity. :(

 

[JuniorGong]

I think he was faking it

In 1963, he was told that he had 2 years to live.  I guess time-space travel is possible after all.  RIP.

There's actually an @KembaStepBack alias? 

Yes! Onions!

RIP, Mr. Hawking.

Oh man I bet @Truckasaurus IV: A New Hope is out of jail by now.

Oooh, nailed me.

I'm more interested in your thoughts on the no-boundary proposal. Granted, I'm assuming you're probably a relatively dumb guy like me, and it's something that neither of us are really equipped to speak intelligently about.

There's a really interesting documentary series on YouTube called Before The Big Bang.

RIP 

 

[dschuler]

He was very adamant as was Elon Musk about the dangers A.I. posed to human civilization in the future.

You know what happens when matter and antimatter are combined, Engineer Scott?

You don't think Dr. Hawking is worth some fireworks?

Well...that’s just like your opinion, man.

 

[Spike]

We need more of him and not less of him. 

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I like to think that he was working in transcendental math combining physics and philosophy and that upon figuring out his ultimate equation he simply transcended to another plane of existence, or to several others at once, including one where he is built like Steve Reeves and he gets to power slam a young Rachel Welch while giving physic lectures to non-carbon based life forms while snorting lines of god particles.

His passing has left an intellectual vacuum in his wake. But it's not empty. Think of it as a kind of vacuum energy permeating the fabric of spacetime that defies measure. Stephen Hawking, RIP 1942-2018.

Still no reason to sto brushing his teeth.

I agree, especially considering he died on Pi day.

How many seasons did it run?

 

[Ketamine Dreams]

RIP to an intellectual giant. 

It’s truly amazing he lived that long with ALS. It makes me wonder if he was misdiagnosed. 

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Any truth to the rumor that his last words were "So long, and thanks for all the fish!"

 

[eoMMan]

Still can't believe he was religious and went to church every Sunday. 

 

[PIK95]

He was an amazing man.  Most people would have folded their hand after that grim diagnosis at 21 but he fought on.  He brought some new but controversial ideas into the scientific community.  He also leaves three proud children to carry on his legacy.

One of his lesser known but equally impressive accomplishments was starting a dance tradition for special needs kids.  It was modeled after the Daryl Dawkins dance, but instead of the girls choosing her partner...well you understand.

Hawkins also had a great sense of humor and was on the big bang theory television show.  He was the most entertaining character that episode.  That may be more of a commentary on the show but he was a funny guy.

Here's to science!  We lost a great one this week.

 

[Epic Problem]

Sad day. Probably won't ever see a War Games sequel now.

An awesome reference if it were true.

Why? Science and religion aren't incompatible.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

As a general rule presume nothing I post is remotely true or correct.  I post for my own amusement.  I have problems.

I assumed as much. I was just hoping, actually, not condemning.

Great reference.

I could not decide between going with that or stating that I now believe he has transformed into a super-intelligent shade of blue.

Best to stick with the more obvious one. I get watcha saying, though. 

I bet he'd read Adams. RIP to both men.

Hawking died long ago, that was an imposter

wish we still had sig lines....

Another reminder that people need to think more.

Think more. Question what they are being told more.

It’s only been a few hours and Stephen Hawking already mathematically proved, to My face, that I don’t exist.
